Man killed in Chambersburg shooting

Calvin Warren James Beam, 18, was shot several times near Franklin Street and Martin Avenue about 10:30 p.m. Monday, police said.

Police said they think some kind of disagreement between Beam and another person may have started in the Salvation Army Thrift Store parking lot.

Officers said they found Beam lying in a parking lot next door.

Police said they are not sure how many shots were fired. One of them hit a house across from the shooting scene.

"We'll have to figure out how they knew each other and what the disagreement was about and what witnesses are available and I'm quite confident we'll solve it," said Chambersburg Police Chief David Arnold.

Forty years ago, one of the greatest boxing matches in history took place in an unlikely setting: the capital of the Philippines. Muhammad Ali's epic win over great rival Joe Frazier in 1975 became known as the "Thrilla in Manila."
